Pocket knife as a tool and self defense, right front pocket of my jacket. A lighter, I don’t smoke but in case I or someone else wants to light something on fire, inside pocket of my jacket. And phone, keys and other stuff but it varies where I store them.

In case anyone is interested in watching a lengthy video essay about how that not the case here: YMS: Kimba the white lion

I have a feather pillow from Ikea that is a few years old at this point and it still fluffs up just as good as the day I got it. I wash it once or twice a year during the warmer months in the washing machine on a gentle cycle with a wool detergent and let it dry outside in the sun while regularly fluffing it and turning it around so it dries evenly and thoroughly.

While I don’t like how feathers are harvested I also don’t like how pillows with polyester filling get lumpy after a while and need to be replaced or repurposed because they stop providing adequate neck support. I’m crafty and have used pillow fillings for sewing projects and stuff like that, but already one pillow is enough filling for lots of projects and I can’t craft enough to repurpose all so inevitably a lot would still end up in the dump.

All the while my parents still have some feather pillows from when I was a child that are still perfectly fluffy. So as log as I take good care of them, they will hopefully last me decades.

They are just for flavor not for eating. Can’t recommend eating cloves or allspice berries either.
